The Austrian flags takea at Uririvereli.l" ll ° placed under the wings of the statues of victory, wl ich adorn the bureau of the President. Between 70 and 89 Members were in attendance at the opening of the Sitting. The President, Baron Pasquier, having taken his seat, called on four of the youngest Members to form the Pro visional Board ;if the House. These were Messrs. Mon talivet, D'lstrie, Barthelmy, and Herwyn. The Secretary, M. Cauchy, next read to the Assembly the minutes of the proceedicfzs at the Royal sitting of the opening of the Session ; an 2 Baron Pasquier communicated to the House the speech delivered ma the occasion by the icing. After the President had sat down, M. Cauchy concluded the proces-verbal. Baron Pasquier aftervoat ds read to the Chamber a number of letters, addressed to hill! .by Peers who were unable t o attend from jlness or other .motives, and informed it that the King and Queen would roceive on Sunday next the grand deputation of the house, vh ich is to wait on their Ma jesties to compliment them on the' occasion of the new year. Four of the Ministers, attired in thvir official dress, were here ushered in, and seated themselvosppposite the tribune ; they were Count Mole, President of' the Council ; M. Gasparin, Minister of the Interior ; M. Persil, Minister of Justice ; and General Bernard, Minister of War. The presence of Marshal Soult, who entered fh a hall imme diately afterwards, caused a considerable de'?ee of sensa tion. The old Marshal looked remarkably wet:, and ap peared to have lost that care-worn look which his counte nance bore when in office. He' went up to General Flahault, with whom he shook hands most cordially, and seated himself next to General Ricard. In passing before the Duke of Broglie, he exchanged with him a cold salute. The ballot, for the definitive organization of the board, being closed, the President called over the names of the members who had had the greatest number of votes, and installed as secretaries Messrs. Barthe, Deceaux, Taseher, and De Castries. The President next announced that M. Persil had de posited on his table a Royal ordinance to the following effect : " Louis Philippe, King of the French, after hearing the re-• port of the Keeper of the Seals and Minister of Justice, has issued the following ordinance:— " Whereas, the 28th article of the Charter invests the Chamber of Peers with the power of judging all crimes c£ high treason; that the 96th article of the Penal Code classes among said crimes, attempts against the King's life, and the safety of the State ; that an attempt of the kind was di rected against my person in the course of this day ; it i s my will that the Chamber of Peers, shall form without delay into a court of justice to try the author of said at tempt. The Court of Peers will comply, in its judicial proceedings, with the forms it has already followed under similar circumstances. M. Frank Carre, the Attorney-Ge neral of the Royal Court, will act as Attorney-General of the Court of Peers on this occasion, and be assisted in the dis charge of those functions by M. Plougoulm, Solicitor-General of the Royal Court, M. Eugene Persil, his substitute and Keeper of the Archives of the Chamber of Peers.

WHEAT AND FLOUR IN FRANCE COMPARED WITH LONDON. WHEAT.-The highest price of the best wheat in Paris is 25f. per 1 hectolitre, which is equal to 38s. 3d. per English quarter. The highest price in Mark-lane, being 70s. per quarter, thew is a difference 31s. 9d., or 83 per cent., and that the same money, which in London buys but eight bushels of wheat, is in Paris the price of fourteen and three quarters of the finest wheat. FLOUR.—The highest price of flour of the " first mark" in Paris is 50 francs per 159 kilogrammes, corresponding with 31s. 6d. per English sack of 280 pounds. The highest price of the best town made flour in London being 60s. per sack, the difference shows fine flour to be 28s. 6d. per sack dearer in London than in Paris, or 90} per cent. ; and that the 60s. which in London will buy but 280 pouuds of flour, will in Paris purchase 502 pounds of the best flour. There was a murder committed in the parish of Eglish on the 19th inst. Au industrious young man, named Delahunt, from Ballingarry, spent the night of last Sunday duck shooting, on a lough in Eglish. On the morning of Monday, between the hours of seven and eight o'clock, he prepared to return home, having come to the determination of calling at Toohy's house, on his way home, for a pistol which he had previously lent him. Toohy's door being open, and no one apparently inside, he entered without making any noise, and sat down by the fire. Toohy being in the garden with his man servant, he became terrified on behold ing a man with a gun taking possession of his house ; he sent his boy for the police, who were protecting a man in the neighbourhood, named Hector, who was lately visited by Captain Terry. The police arrived in about ten minutes, and one of them, a fellow named Ring, gliding by the wall up to the door, peeped in, saw the man inoffensively sitting by the fire, then stepped forward, and, presenting his car bine, he shot his unsuspecting victim through the neck. The ball entered in the front, tore the trachea, passed through some of the principal vessels, came out at the spine below the shoulder, and was flattened against the opposite wall. 'The unfortunate victim gave one plunge, and fell across the fire a stiffened and bloody corpse.—Clonnicl Advertiser. On Thursday afternoon, between three and four o'clock, an alarming fire broke out in the house of an elderly lady named Johnstone, Alsop-terrace, Regent's-park, by which, we regret to say, Mrs. Johnstone,taged 81 years, fell a victim to the Sam .s. The dreadful calamity is be lieved to have been occasioned by the old lady standing too near the fire-place, and her dress coming in contact with the bars of the grate she was instantly enveloped in flames. Her shrieks instantly brought the, domestics to her assist ance, who soon extinguished the fire. Medical aid was in stantly called in, and every means were resorted to that could be devised to alleviate the sufferings of the unfortu nate lady, but death terminated her sufferin g s on Thurs day night. M r . R ose , w ith th e eng i ne and firemen from the King-street station of the London Fire Engine Estab lishment, promptly attended, but their services were not required.

TIIE NEW MONTHLY MAGAZINE, AND Hu- MOURIST—EDITED BY THEODORE HOOK, ESQ.—The First Number for the New Year of this deservedly popular Periodical, now edited by the Author of " Saying and Doings," is published this day. Among the articles of a humourous and witty nature by some of our first comic writers, we observe the following :—The Gurney Papers, by Theodore Ilook, Esq:—the Manager ' s Room of the Theatre Royal at Little Pedlington, by John Poole, Esq. —Achates Digby, by Alfred Crowquill—The Grand Ken tucky Balloon, by one of the authors of " The Rejected Addresses"—The Disasters of Carfington Blundell, Esq., by Leigh Hunt, Esq.—Songs of the Blacks, by J. B. Buckstone, Esq.—The Wine Cellar, by Douglas Jerrold, Esq.—Club Law, &c. The Number also contains Papers from the pens of the Hon. Mrs. Norton,-Miss Landon, N. P. Willis, Esq., &c. &c., but one of the most interesting among the whole, is perhaps an Article on the genius, wit, and humour of the late George Colman. • - On the Quai des Tuileries a pistol was fired at the car riage, just at the moment when his Majesty was saluting the crowd assembled to witness his passage. The King was not struck. The ball broke the glass, passed between the heads of the Dukes of Orleans and Nemours, and lodged in the upper part of the carriage. The pistol was fired by an individual who formed one of a group of three young men, placed immediately behind the National Guards. One only fired. At the moment the report was heard, another of the party had his arm extended, and was on the point of pulling the trigger of a second pistol, when a by-stander struck down his arm. The third had also a pistol in his hand, but had nut presented it. The report threw the procession into some disorder. The King's car riage stopped suddenly. His Majesty put his head out of the window, spoke to several of the Generals who formed his escort, and assured the people that he was not hurt. Some splinters of the glass, however, struck the faces of the Dukes of Orleans and Nemours. The Prince Royal was cut below the right ear, and the wound bled profusely. The Duke de Nemours escaped with a few scratches on his right cheek. In the afternoon the Ministers proceeded to the Palace to congratulate his Majesty on his providential escape, and in the evening the Ambassadors and Ministers of the foreign Powers had the honour of being received by the King. When the King yesterday withdrew from the Chamber into the apartment prepared for his reception, his Majesty received the congratulations of several Members of both Chambers. The Queen entered and threw herself into his arms. This scene of mingled joy and grief, by a whole Royal family being subjected to such cruel trials of their firmness, affected all present with deep emotion. The Deputies pressed around, and all opinions—all parties— were confounded in one common feeling. The King, on his return to the Tuileries, received successively in the throne-room the two Chambers, who, by a spontaneous movement, waited on him. The King replied to the speech of the President by an energetic discourse, pronounced in a firm voice. Every one remarked the serenity which marked the countenance of the King, while, at the same time, that of the Queen evinced strong emotion. " I was coming to congratulate you—to congratulate myself with you," said the King, "on the happiness which France owed to my reign. I was impatient to iaect you again, happy to have to thank you for the loyal assistance which you had for so long given me, and which your devotedness still assured me of, and it was this moment, when indulging in these feelings, this in stant, that the assassin chose to stain my carriage with blood." Here the King was interrupted by the continued acclamations of those present. After dinner the receptions recommenced. At 11 o'clock the Court of the Tuileries was still full of carrriages. The vast saloons of the Tuile ries were scarcely large enough to contain the crowd of Ambassadors, Peers of France, and Deputies who had flocked there, A great number of foreigners were present, and a great number of ladies. The countenance of the Queen bore evident marks of strong emotion, but that of the King was perfectly calm. A painful expression was visible on every face—all present appeared humiliated at the sad spectacle periodically presented by France to the rest of Europe.—Gafignani's Messenger. The culprit appeared to be much agitated, and a few moments before the arrival of his Majesty had attracted the notice of a police agent, and an inspector of the Cha teau, who were preparing to take him into custody. At this moment the King passed, and the assassin fired so quickly that it was impossible to arrest his arm ; the ball, though fired at a distance, entered the middle of tho carriage glass, and only missed the King's breast by a few lines. Parties from all sides now rushed on him ; and although he made no resistance, he was severely handled by the crowd. The assassin, when taken to the Tuileries, was placed in one of the lower rooms, under a double guard. He was immediately stripped of his clothes, which were composed of a dark blue great coat, a black waistcoat, gray trowsers, boots, a pair of socks— one blue, the other white, the whole in a very bad condition. He had on two shirts, nearly new ; his linen was not marked. In his pockets were found some papers of no importance, three pipes, and some tobacco, but no money. The pistol which he used was of a medium size, with a screw rifle barrel—it was a very common weapon, and had been very slightly charged, although it made a very loud re port. In the hat which he wore, and which was not found until some time afterhis arrest, was the name of the maker, Grille, Rue St. Martin. An officer immediately went to this address, when it was found that the maker had been absent from Paris for three months, but that it would be very easy to find him out. The bearing of the prisoner, al though labouring under a degree of nervous agitation, was calm. He is a man of middle stature, about 22 or 23 years of age, apparently of a strong constitution ; his countenance is vulgar, with a certain degree of boldness about the fore head and eyes. His physiognomy displays a mixture of bru tality and firmness, physical strength acted upon by a limited understanding, grossness of the moral sense, and determina tion of character. He indulged in no recrimination, nor al luded to any injury received : but after his first replies to the examining magistrates, in which he declared himself guilty of the crime, and denying all idea of a conspiracy or confederates, he declared that he would not add any fur ther information, and, in fact, he said no more. His name, age, profession, place of nativity, or residence, could not be discovered. To some exhortations to repentence he replied simply by bowing. At some expressions, full of feeling and emotion addressed to him by an Hon. General, he at first seemed sensibly moved, but some other incident at the moment changed the character of the scene and turned' his thoughts into another channel. When this period of obstinacy is past, which is similar to that evinced by Ali baud, there is little doubt but some light will be thrown on the affair by himself ; till then the magistrates will seek for information from other sources. It was reported in the evening that some traces of the truth were already disco vered. Some reports say that he has been recognised as a journeyman saddler, and a claqucur at the theatres ; others that his name is Chantu or Chantrut, but we will not not vouch for the truth of either rumour. He was removed last evening to the Conciergerie, under a strong escort.— Journal des Debats. The slight wound of the Duke of Orleans bled very freely. When his Royal Highness returned home, his beard, cravat, and part of his dress, were covered with blood. The wound was below the car, but it is not in the slightest degree dangerous. The face of the Duke of Ne mours is scratched by the particles of glass. Had they struck him a little higher, his eyes must have suffered. The ball passed under the throat of the King, and be tween the Duke de Nemours and the Prince de Joinville, lodging in one of the panels. Marshal Lobau, who was on the right of the coach, and the Duke de Treviso, his Ma jesty's orderly officer, who was on the left, were both in great danger of being struck. In the course of his examination the assassin declared that he had contemplated the murder of the King ever since the 9th or August, 1830. He appears to have Atu died political writings, which have inflamed his mind, and made him a second Alibaud. The examination of the three arrested individuals and of the witnesses, lasted until a quarter past seven o'clock, when the former were conducted to the Prefecture of Police in two coaches, escorted by a numerous detachment of municipal guards and Sergens De Ville. MM. Mole, Guizot, and Persil, and the Pre fect of Police, who was on the spot when the assassin was arrested, were present during the examination. It was reported at midnight that the two persons arrested on the Quay of the Tuileries, a few feet distant from the assassin, had been set at liberty, after having undergone a short examination.—Constitutiounel. On the arrival of the Prefect of Police and other ma gistrates at the guard-house, they proceeded to interrogate the culprit. He obstinately refused to give his name, de claring that they should never know it. The most urgent instances could draw nothing more from him than that he belonged to a house of trade. On being questioned as to his accomplices, he said, " I have none. I alone have con ceived and executed what I have done ;" adding that he had no knowledge of the two men who were arrested with him. On being conducted to the Conciergerie, he was visited by Dr. Vareliaud, who found that lie was affected with the itch. The Director said, " I must have your name, to insert in the re"ister."—" I have no name." " Give me that, of your father."—" It will come at a later day." "Do you mean your name, or your father's'''- " Mine," he replied, after some little hesitation. Soon afterwards, on being asked whether he would have anything to cat, he said, " I shall be glad to break a crust." He was placed in the cell formerly occupied by Fieschi. He assumes great indifference, and smiles contemptuously when the enormity of his crime is represented to him. One of the two men arrested at the same time has been set at liberty, it being proved that it was by mere accident he happened to be near the assassin.—Gazette cln Tribunaux. CHAMBER OF PEERS, DEC. 28. The meeting was announced for 12 o'clock ; but it was " LOUIS PHILIPPE. " PERSIL, Keeper of the Seals." The President having ordered the ordinance to be copied by the Secretary of the Chamber, and the original depo sited in its archives, observed that the next step to be taken by the House was to form itself into a court of jus tice, and as it was necessary to proceed without delay, he recommended that the Chamber should resolve itself into a private committee that very moment, to hear the requisi tory of the Attorney-General. The Duke de Broglie here took the place of Baron Pas quier, as President, and drew the names of the members of the seven standing committees and of the grand deputation the House who is to wait on the King on the Ist of Ja nuary, and M. Pasquicr having resumed his seat, ordered the public galleries to be cleared, .and the Chamber formed into a secret committee at half-past two o'clock. CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES, DEC. 28. M. Bedoch, senior Deputy and President pro tempore, took the chair at half-past twelve, when the Chamber hav ing adopted the report of the former sitting, proceeded to the nomination of the bureaux (standing comm►ttees.) The Deputies arrived slowly, and instead of taking their places remained for some time in front of the tribune, and entered into private conversation. M. Thiers, late President of the Council, entered the Chamber at an early hour, and took his seat upon a bench belonging to the second section of the centre gauche. At half past two, there was a tolerably full attendance of Deputies ; on the Ministerial bench we observed MM. Guizot, Persil, Martin (Du Nord), and Admiral Rosamel. The President read a letter from the King, intimating that his Ailajesty would receive the grand deputation of the Chamber at twelve o'clock on Sunday next (New Year's Day), and would also be happy to see as many other mem bers of the Chamber as • might be pleased to accompany the deputation an that occasion. The Chambers having disposed of some matters con nected with the elections of Deputies lately chosen, pro ceeded to vote by b.iliot for the nomination of a President and four Vice-Presidenis. The result of the votes (307 in all) for the different can didates was as follows : For M. Dupin M. Laffitte M. Ilumann M. Jaqueminot M. Royer Collard M. R. Fontaine 4 M. B. Delessert 4 M. Dupin was accordingly re-elected President of the Chamber. The vote by ballot for the nomination of four Vice-Pre sidents were not concluded when the reporter left. FRENCH FUNDS.-PA RIS, DEC. 28.

THE DUCHESS OF; ST. ALBANS.—The last time her Grace resided at Brighton, some ladies of her acquaint ance called upon her, and in the course of the conversation that ensued, one of them related the circumstances of a lady who had fallen into distress, who formerly moved in highly respectable society. This conversation took place amon. , the ladies, and her Grace did not appear as if she noticed it at all. Unknown, however, to any'person, as it has since been ascertained, her Grace dressed herself so as not to be easily known, and, unattended, called upon the lady in decayed circumstances, and having found that the talc she bad heard recited was strictly true, when she came away, she left a small parcel behind her, requesting that it might not be opened till after she left the house. The astonishment of the lady in distress may be conceived, when, on opening the parcel, she found that it contained the sum of 3001.! These are the bare facts, which we have from the highest authority, and they are too honourable to the Duchess of St. Albins to require a single comment, — Brighton Patriot. The Hon. Charles Compton and Lady Catherine CavendisL have arrived at Burlington House, from Lati lie fi.:i CI be present at the nuptials of their niece, Miss Ca vendish, to Count d'Harcourt. Lady Charles Fitzroy has arrived from the Duke of Grafton's seat, Wakefield Lodge, Northamptonshire, for the same purpose ; but the young lady continues unfortunately indisposed. ST. JAMES'S TITEATRE.—The new pieces, pro duced on Monday, havo> drawn excellent houses every night. They have been got ui; with considerable care, and at some cost, as regards costume an:l scenery. In the bur letta of Bletchington House, opportuntiZs are afforded for the display of the pathetic powers of Miss ii:jsen, and the dry humour of Mr. Harley. Of the singing of Mr. Braham, it may with the strictest truth be said that it re tains its freshness, its exquisite pathos, and its rapidity And beauty of execution. The continued severity of the weather, uncheered by any prospect of mitigation, has been productive of its usual effects, that of raising the prices of food, fuel, and other necessaries, almost equally vital at this inclement sea son. If the predictions of those who lay claim to superior weather-wisdom are to be depended upon, there are several more weeks of constant frost in store for us ; and should such be the case, it is to , be feared that the condition of the poor (at all times sufficiently wretched) will be greatly aggravated in its privation and distress. it is worthy of remark, that the intense frost of 1814, the year celebrated for its Cockney Carnival on the frozen l'hatnes, did not commence until after Christmas, and bore other points of resemblance to the one by which we arc now visited. WHISKEY V. WATER.—Logan, on a market-day in Kilmarnock, went into a tavern with a friend, and or dered some whisky. The waiter, when he set down the measure, asked if they wished to have water along with the spirits ? " Na," said the Laird, " had ye no better try to tak' out the water that's in't already ?"—Laird of Logan.
